Finding the best CSGO gambling sites in 2019 is not that easy. CSGO gambling has had a chequered past to say the least, with many sites being shut down and penalised because of illegal activity.

There is clearly a demand among some Counter-Strike lovers to bet on their favourite game but for the sector to be sustainable long-term, CSGO gambling sites must comply with the laws - primarily for the safety and security of esports fans but also for the sake of themselves.

ESL Bundesliga with another Sunday Night (9 comments)
Posted by chzzen @ 12:58 CDT, 20 March 2011 - iMsg
Tonight it will be the 6th play day of the esl2 ESL Bundesliga. Most recently, jaysson took a map from k1llsen and psyrex took Battleforged in his match against calipt on play day 1. This puts both players in the favorite position in their today's match.
So far every player lost at least on one map in the German league while there are still many nice games to be expected let's hope that the the unexpected may happen tonight as well.

JeeSports.UT announce 200€ 1on1 ladder (45 comments)
Posted by zelvZ @ 05:55 CDT, 19 March 2011 - iMsg
JeeSports announced that they have opened a 1on1 ladder on their site. This ladder will act as the seeding for the previously announced upcoming 100€ tournaments that are open to all players.

The top-8 of the ladder at the end of every month will face off in a separate playoff - for more than 200€ in prizes! Read on for the full story!

JeeSports announced a couple of weeks ago that they would support our beloved UT2004 with cash tournaments every other week. The plans are now set, including a surprise that might make your shooting-finger twitch a bit:

A ladder with a 200€ playoff for the top 8! The ladder rankings will also be the basis for the seedings in the 100€ cups, so to make sure you don't face off against the highest ranked players in the first round you know what you should do! And, this being a ladder, activity pays.


The aim of these series of tournaments is to show every former and would-be UT2004 player that this game is still alive and absolutely kicking, as well as giving fans of e-sports a fantastic show to follow. Expect nervy games going all the way to overtime, Hungary Varagh-like whines and spamming of binds, Netherlands ScrMz' link to be on fire and someone to get frustrated by it and expect United Kingdom astz! to make someone upset with his undying love for the shockrifle.

Prepare for old names to return and new heroes to be made.

Prepare for some UT2004 action the way it's meant to be played!

The show will be spectacular, with shoutcast, stream and naturally UTV. UT2004 always was a superb game for spectators, especially when coupled with skillful shoutcasting and that is exactly what you will get here! The goal is to show people even outside of the Unreal universe what a great game this is to watch and follow, and so HD-streams with shoutcasting are planned and will be announced on various gaming sites. You can help too, by announcing it to your friends on Facebook when it gets closer, for instance.

fatal1ty 1on1 2/2: TDM, PK and Q4 (177 comments)
Posted by Thorin @ 10:57 CDT, 18 March 2011 - iMsg
In the second, and final, part of his 1on1 interview with SK Gaming the legendary United States of America Johnathan "fatal1ty" Wendel discusses his Q3 TDM play, Painkiller and Quake 4.

The knock on fatal1ty has always been his teamplay so how does he weigh up credit for United States of America cK's domination in light of playing with the TDM genius United States of America czm? Was Netherlands Vo0 the best Painkiller player? How much did the American offer the Dutchman to bet on PK games? Is the theme of returning to competition and having to catch up an important one for motivating fatal1ty? Would he ever return if the prize money was high enough and there was a properly structured tour?

The second part of the interview can be watched at SK Gaming.

Posted by Thorin @ 09:43 CDT, 17 March 2011 - iMsg
In part 2 of the Chronicles of czm Quake's most beloved Maths student, United States of America Paul "czm" Nelson, takes us inside his head for his run at the Babbage's CPL in late 2000.

What movie-like change took place in czm's perceptions during his incredible rail-after-rail sequence to win his famous t4 match against Sweden Aim? How did imagining TV cameras were filming him affect his winning reaction? czm also goes through his matches against United States of America Indio_007, Sweden proZaC and Sweden DOOMer. What got under his skin psychologically against the QW legend DOOMer on dm6?

Part two can be watched at SK Gaming.
